Carmelo Anthony may not be in the NBA right now, but he still pays attention to everything happening around the league. The free agent was mentioned by Dillon Brooks recently and didn’t hesitate to call out the Memphis Grizzlies player.
Melo reacted to Brooks dissing him and Dwight Howard, claiming they aren’t good veterans for the team.
“Please keep me out of it RESPECTFULLY,” Melo commented on an NBA Buzz Instagram post.
This comes after Brooks stated that Melo was just trying to get a new chance in the NBA, just like Dwight Howard. These words didn’t sit well with a lot of people around the league, who blasted the Grizzlies’ swingman for his disrespect.
Carmelo wasn’t having any of that and he asked the player to stop mentioning his name in those statements. It’s pretty clear that Brooks has made a lot of enemies around the league and Anthony is trying to keep things cool with him.
Carmelo Anthony Has Been Linked With Contenders This Season
Even though he hasn’t played since his last tenure with the Los Angeles Lakers, Carmelo remains a famous name in the NBA. The future Hall of Famer was linked with a series of teams in the past weeks, including the Memphis Grizzlies. He was dubbed a good mentor for Ja Morant amid his recent controversies, but this wasn’t the only team.
The Phoenix Suns were also named a potential destination for Anthony, and Kevin Durant could have made a push for them to sign Melo. However, nothing has changed for Melo so far, and the player is still trying to find a new opportunity in the league.
After being one of the best stars in the league, Melo has become a role player. He’s trying to help contenders win it all, but right now, it doesn’t look like he has a chance to return to the NBA.
